Kids Say the Darndest Things Part III


OK - So, this one deserves its own separate post. Kellar & I were sitting at the table doing his Spelling Workout book. Each lesson has a word list that they learn to spell and to use the vocab appropriately. There are various types of drills with each lesson and this particular one was a fill-in-the-blank for a 'short story!' Here's a small section of the Word List and following, a portion of the story to be filled in!

bath
white
when
mother

___________ I go to bed at night, I brush my __________ teeth. I also make sure to take a ______________.

So, we work thru this and the first blank is "when".... then "white". So, what might Kellar think goes in the last blank? Sleeping Pill! Not 'bath' - but 'sleeping pill!' I about lost it!
"When I go to bed at night, I brush my white teeth. I also make sure to take a sleeping pill!"
Yes - I suffer from insomnia! And yes, I've finally resorted to taking Sleeping Pills, OTC. I had no idea that my kids were so in tuned with my inability to sleep without these favorite blue pills of mine! I guess I must admit I get a bit freakish if I can't find the bottle... I'm not addicted to them... but I am addicted to SLEEP!

So - once again, Kellar proves that kids can say the darndest things! Speaking of which, it's about time for me to throw back one of those blue pills!

Check you out! You Blogged and posted all in the same day. :) To answer your qquestions on my blog:
1: Yes, it is the cutest thing to see her *read her Bible and say her name!* I love it.
2: Yes. For the most part I'll do the challenge- as much as a prego can do at least. Not that I'll get a smoken body, but a prego body with a little tune up. ha ha ha :)
3: Would love to live on the East Coast. Now to get E to move there will be my biggest challenge of all. THe only reason I said LA was because he got some kind of job thinging there- seemed pretty cool.

I think that was it. If not you can let me know.
Back to watch LOST!!!
Love ya

The tube is on when E comes home, little E watches Veggie tales, and me my soap & teeny show (Passions and What I like about you(which I've seen almost all the shows at least 2 or 3 times)).
But ya, life is nice and quiet when the tube is off. Which is sooo nice. QUIET TIME!!!!! :) Then that normally means E is reading and I am playing on the puter and most likely blogging because I can't get enough of it. I need a life or is this my life?!?!!?
